Instrumentation and scientific tools
Analytical chemistry tools.
Techniques for trace analysis of aqueous samples. A thermal combustion technique for the analysis of Black (BC), Elemental (EC) and Organic Carbon (OC) in molten ice samples. Sample preparation facilities to handle ice samples at -18°C. A fast Electromechanical Lightweight Ice Coring System (FELICS).Instruments of the Laboratory of Radiochemistry and Environmental Chemistry
Surface chemistry tool PROTAC.
The aim of PROTRAC project is to provide the short-lived radioactive isotopes 13N,11C and 15O to our laboratories for experiments in atmospheric chemistry. To study interactions between gas molecules and surface we use highly sensitive technique which employes radioactive-labelled molecules. The isotopes are produced by irradiation of gas stream in a target by proton beam.Instruments of the Laboratory of Radiochemistry and Environmental Chemistry
